Chacma baboon male-male greeting dataset, Gorongosa National Park, Mozambique

See README file for more complete information

Overview: This dataset provides presence/absence data for each of 55 observations from Gorongosa National Park. Each observation is one male-male greeting. Data was first collected using BORIS (Friard and Gamba, 2016) following an ethogram (DOI:10.5281/zenodo.7314291), then cleaned using Python version 3.8.5 and R version 4.3.1 to format as a presence/absence matrix. Some of these observations (with observation IDs ending in "_greet[xx]" also appear in the more general approach dataset found under the following DOI 10.5281/zenodo.10339023. These observations are part of both datasets as they qualify both as male-male greetings and also as approaches from outside 5 m to within 2 m.
